The quarantine value on the original app (not its translocated copy) is changed not to 01c3, but only to 00c3, sufficient to dodge the dialog asking you whether you want to run the app.

That translocated app still undergoes all the normal first run checks, but there are two important differences: If you ignore my advice and run the app in the same folder, it’s translocated and undergoes its first run in a random directory buried deep in hidden folders. The quarantine value is then set to 01c3, and no further first run checks are performed on that app. Once decompressed from its download, if you follow my advice and move that app to a different folder, such as one of the standard Applications folders, when you run it the normal first run sequence takes place, much as described at the top. Not all decompression utilities follow that, but all the more popular ones do.

So an app decompressed from a Zip archive will bear the same quarantine value, on each of its files and folders. When Archive Utility unpacks and decompresses a file with a quarantine xattr, it propagates that xattr to all the resulting files. Quarantine xattrs are sticky due to the way they’re normally respected. Transfer a file using AirDrop, and the quarantine value is normally 0081 instead. That’s not built into macOS, and some methods of downloading such as curl can obtain files without attaching any quarantine xattr to them. When you download an app, perhaps compressed into an archive, that normally has a quarantine value of 0083 attached to it in the xattr.

If you say yes, the quarantine flag is cleared, and the app doesn’t have to go through first run checks again.Īs I described earlier this week, that omits app translocation, should the app meet its criteria.If they’re OK and it’s notarized correctly, you’re prompted to decide whether to run the app.

The app undergoes a full signature check, XProtect scan, and its notarization is checked.

As the app has its quarantine flag set, it undergoes full first run checks by Gatekeeper.A simple account of what happens when you first run an app you have just downloaded runs something like:
